Summary

This is page 11 of a court transcript filed on July 16, 2019. Defense attorney Mr. Weinberg argues to The Court that the discussion should concern the scope of Epstein's Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA), not its legality. He references a filing by Northern District of Georgia prosecutors (acting for Southern District of Florida) before Judge Marrah that supported the NPA's constitutionality and asserted Epstein fulfilled his obligations.

1 that.
2 THE COURT: Do you anticipate that there is going to
3 be any discussion here about the legality of the NPA?
4 MR. WEINBERG: Not the legality of the NPA. I think
5 the discussion here is going to be about its scope.
6 THE COURT: From the defense, yes. You don't think
7 you expect to hear anything from the government, for example?
8 MR. WEINBERG: In the Southern District case, the CVRA
9 case, maybe two weeks ago the Northern District of Georgia
10 prosecutors, who are proxy for the Southern District of
11 Florida, filed the submission before District Judge Marrah in
12 the CVRA case totally supporting the constitutionality and
13 legality of the NPA, their discretion to enter into it, and
14 that there absolutely has never been a charge that Mr. Epstein
15 ever did anything other than fully perform his end as a citizen
16 who is expecting the benefits of a contract that he lived up
17 to.
18 THE COURT: I thought there had been some contention
19 that the way that the victims vis-a-vis the Florida NPA were
20 dealt with or not dealt with was one basis for attacking the
21 legality of that arrangement.
22 MR. WEINBERG: The petitioners are vigorously and have
23 vigorously for many years challenged, many years starting quite
24 frankly after Mr. Epstein performed his obligations to go to
25 jail and challenged it, claiming that there was no consultation
